GREENPOINT — LAST WEEKEND’S LADYLAND Festival, held under the Kosciuszko Bridge, attracted large crowds despite the light rain with all-night performances by acts like Tinashe, Arca, Bob the Drag Queen and Julia Fox, reports Vogue. Superstar Madonna also made a surprise appearance on Saturday night, serving as a guest judge for the festival’s vogue ball dance competition.
Pride month ended with a bang on Sunday, with thousands gathering on Fifth Avenue for the city’s annual NYC Pride March, the largest Pride parade in the nation.
